At Rice, grad students share faculty with undergraduates. At Pomona, you will have NO contact with grad students, and the graduate faculties at Claremont Graduate University and Keck Institute do not teach undergraduates. Only at Claremont McKenna, where the M.A. in Finance program has the same economics/finance professors as the rest of the college, is there any faculty sharing; and even at CMC, the graduate courses and the undergraduate courses are separate. If Rice is like Northwestern (where I did my Ph.D.), upper level undergraduate/lower level graduate courses are one and the same; the experience is nothing like being at a liberal arts college.
